The sulphur dioxide (SO2) concentration can be monitored via its absorbance in the ultraviolet (UV) region. To address the absence of a systematic study on the UV absorbance of varying SO2 concentrations, a multispectral imaging method was implemented in the present study. SO2 concentrations and various environmental conditions were controlled by a purpose-built environmental control system with a light path of 4.2 m. Five narrow-band-pass filters in front of a UV camera were used to implement multispectral imaging. Regression models of the relationship between UV absorbance and SO2 concentration at each wavelength are presented. Their residuals were kept relatively small by adopting Jenks natural breaks analysis, with a maximum standard deviation of 0.086. Temperature and SO2 concentrations were significantly associated with UV absorbance. Furthermore, smoothed look-up tables were developed to explicitly elucidate the correlation between UV absorbance and SO2. These have been represented as heat maps, showcasing an example of library construction using a combination of abundant research data.
